Our trip part 2

Tuesday we went to Jetty Island.  I had never been before and on Sunday night I asked Scott what to expect.  He said, "Bring your book."

I am definitely the oddball in the Davis family.  Everyone feels a magnetic pull toward water except me.  What makes me feel loved is that they're my people anyway.  I'm the pale one over there with the book but they make me feel like I'm their pale one over there with the book.

We don't see enough of Talia and Jackson and it was really fun to have them along too.  Braeden and Mark especially loved getting to know Jackson all over again.

We were there for low tide and everyone went waaaaay out to the water with paddle boards and floaties.  (Is that what you call them?)  They also had to fight the really deep mud right at the water's edge.

I promise that is them--just far away.

I, of course, read my book and didn't get nearly as tired as everyone else.

We played bocce ball on the wet sand and then the boys built a sandcastle.

Seriously the big boys making a sand castle like they did when they were little boys was the cutest thing ever.

Here we are about to get on the ferry to return back to the mainland:

Adam, Megan, Geri, Mark, Talia, Emma, Jackson, Raelyn, Braeden and me

Talia, Jackson, Braeden and Emma decided to go to the movie and to dinner so Geri and Megan and Adam and I went to Kafe Neo, which is our favorite Greek restaurant we haven't found a good Utah replacement for.

It was delicious.

Wednesday we went to Snohomish to visit all the shops that make my heart skip a beat.  So many pretty things!

We had dinner with the Jorgensens that night and Emma and Braeden and I went early for a playdate (Mark was sequestered away with his friends.)

Just like forever and always, it was wonderful to be with the Jorgensens.  They feel like family and seeing these two boys together again made my heart happy.

Happily, the Jorgensens are coming to stay with us later this week because they are bringing Leif and Freja to BYU.  Proximity to BYU is pretty much where it's at!  The four big kids went to the movie again and Mark slipped back to Finn's house and Adam and I visited with Janet and Eric.

We never seem to run out of things to say.
